St. Cloud, MN Children’s Birthday Photographer | Gemma’s 2 Year Birthday Session

Although the most popular birthday photography package at Tiny Hearts Studio is definitely the one year cake smash, I love celebrating other birthdays with kiddos too! It was so much fun to have Miss Gemma in my St. Cloud studio for a 2 year birthday session!

We’ve all heard of the terrible twos, but actually, 2 years old can be a really fun age as well. Children are becoming more independent and talking more, and they love to play and pretend! I certainly had a great time with Gemma. And she enjoyed playing with her balloons and testing out poses on a couple of the studio’s wicker chairs. I find that keeping things flexible and child-led makes for a fun photo experience for everyone!

If you want to get professional photos of your child on a regular basis (and you should!), annual birthday pictures can be the perfect way to do it. Upcoming birthdays are an automatic reminder to schedule your child’s photoshoot. (These pictures also make wonderful invitations or gifts!)

As a professional St. Cloud, MN children’s birthday photographer, I’d love to help you celebrate this special time in your child’s life—and make sure you have those memories to cherish forever! Contact Tiny Hearts Studio today to book your session!

Cake Smash Photoshoot | Minnesota Photographer

How cute is this little princess? We had a fantastic cake smash photoshoot with her, complete with all the trimmings. Plenty of flowers, tons of pink balloons, and a cake made just for her. What could be better?

When it comes to cake smashes, I’ve discovered that every baby is different. Some of them dive in face-first, and some of them need a lot of coaxing before they’ll even touch it. This little lady was somewhere in between. In the end, it doesn’t really matter how they react, because we’ll get some great first birthday pictures regardless! In this case, baby girl gave us some super cute frosting-face shots—and absolutely adorable smiles!

We also set some time aside during this cake smash photoshoot to get a few one year baby portraits. The birthday girl was irresistible in her pale peach outfit, and had fun checking out the different props. Such a happy little one!

Looking for a cake smash photographer in Minnesota? I’m so glad you found Tiny Hearts Studio! I love creating the perfect cake smash setups for my clients to celebrate this big milestone in baby’s life. I pride myself in making the experience customized, fun, and hassle-free. So let’s get started!

MN Cake Smash Photographer | Luka’s First Birthday Session

I had such a blast being the MN cake smash photographer for this handsome little man’s first birthday! Luka was such an easygoing baby, and the most adorable little birthday boy—I gushed over his curls the entire session.

I’m also totally jealous of this piano prop that mom and dad brought from home—I might just have to go out and buy something like it for my St. Cloud, MN photography studio! Dad is the musician of the family and actually has a recording studio at their house, which is so cool! We all thought Luka looked like a little Bruno Mars. :)

Mom requested no other props aside from the piano, so we kept things pretty minimalist. She liked the simple, clean look, which I also love! It made the photos from this first birthday photography session so timeless. I’m confident these photos will never go out of style!

Luka didn’t seem too hungry during the cake smash photography portion of our time together, but he was very excited about his bubble bath! There’s nothing like suds for good clean fun!

As a MN cake smash photographer, I love helping little ones and their families celebrate that first big milestone! If you’re interested in a first birthday photo shoot for your baby, get in touch and let’s start planning!
